involving a siberia airlines passenger jet now that exploded over the black sea according to the aviation agency investigation on that occasion it was downed by an accidental launch of a surface to air missile from ukraine so the similarities already evident involving this region now on one occasion it was confirmed by russia ukraine denied at the time it was firing any rockets and the plane was heading from tel aviv viable guerrier to the russian city of novosibirsk there were seventy eight people on board. so let's round up the details as we have the now on our breaking news story this hour a malaysian boeing seven seven seven airliner is reported to have crashed in ukraine's east where the military is battling against local self-defense units now apparently the aircraft was traveling from amsterdam and disappeared from radar sixty kilometers away from the russian border according to the manifest two hundred eighty passengers are on board and fifteen crew members and very sadly we are getting information from ukraine's security services the presumption from then is that all of the people.

two thousand and one was when assad passenger jets exploded over the black sea according to the aviation agency investigation on that occasion it was downed by an. launch of a surface to air missile from ukraine. by russia although ukraine denies it was firing any rockets at the top of the plane was heading from tel aviv. to the russian city of nova seventy eight people that particular flight. now earlier this year another malaysian airlines flight when missing after leaving kuala lumpur for beijing now you remember this i'm sure it lost contact with air traffic control on march the eighth the company reported the aircraft missing a massive world wide search began for that jet and as yet no traces ever being found of it in going operation to locate that plane is currently centered hundreds of kilometers off the eastern coast of australia so potentially what we're looking at here is another tragedy for malaysian airlines with a potentially large scale loss of life let's bring you the latest now it's a developing story more information coming in every minute thanks for staying with us here on r.t

from a russian aviation source this came via the reuters news agency. the aviation source says that this particular flight was expected to enter russian airspace at five twenty pm moscow time and it simply did not arrive so everything that we're getting now is painting a picture of a large scale tragedy now very sadly some other information just coming in their malaysian defense ministry has just said that they have no concrete evidence out all of the plane being shot down so that's something else that's some more information coming in we are getting more and more information coming in and we're just going to try and evaluates the sources etc let me just tell you about another situation because in october two thousand and one. passenger jet exploded over the black sea now according to the aviation agency investigation it was done by an accidental launch of a surface to air missile from ukraine what's confirmed by russia the ukraine denied it was firing any rockets after the time the plane was heading from tel aviv area to the russians to be of novice app

aviation agency issued warnings to stay way from the area. the region wasn't the subject of any alerts to pilots and the airspace above 32,000 feet was not restricted. let's bring in ryan chilcote. now, the reaction has happened,, they are saying they're avoiding the area. but, why has it taken this long now for associations to come up and say, we need to secure this area? >> i guess, where we have to start is the sap to be a very transit point. is liket corridor, it going from western europe to southeast asia and in this particular case, it was going from amsterdam to kuala lumpur. , i meanay very popular very popular, just a couple of weeks ago, before the conflict began, about three months ago, there were up to 400 flights a day flying over eastern ukraine. back, obviously some airlines stopped flying that route, but even as recently as earlier this week, there was still about 100 planes every over easterning ukraine. you just pointed out that the wherection in terms of the aircraft was allowed to fly, they had to be above 32,000 feet. thi

and europe's aviation agency followed suit today.n the diplomatic front, secretary of state john kerry returned to cairo, in a bid to get a cease-fire. egyptian officials talked of negotiating a humanitarian truce by next week, the end of the muslim holy month of ramadan. hamas' leader has voiced support for the idea but only if israel ends its economic blockade of gaza. israeli officials suggested a truce is not imminent, and said the army might need two more weeks to finish destroying the hamas' tunnel network. with the number of casualties rising there is a growing focus on the tactics being used by both sides. we look at that with two experts on the law of armed conflict. amos guiora, an israeli, is a professor of law at the university of utah. he had a 19 year career in the israel defense forces and is the author of the book, "legitimate target: a criteria-based approach to targeted killing." he joins us from jerusalem. and noura erakat, a palestinian, is a human rights attorney and activist. she's also an assistant professor at

that was followed by a mandatory ban by the faa and the european aviation safety agency.port is open this morning. israeli officials insisting it's safe and want the ban lifted. former new york city mayor michael bloomberg flew to tel aviv on the israeli airline el al last night on a show of support. bloomberg urged the faa to permit u.s. airlines to fly to israel. now, overnight, huge explosions lit up the gaza strip sky as the israeli assault continued. palestinian militants have fired more than 2,000 rockets at israel. alphonso van marsh reports on the flight ban into tel aviv. >> reporter: it was this hamas rocket strike on a tel aviv neighborhood that forced the faa to ban u.s. flights to ben gurion airport. the faa warned airlines of a "potentially hazardous situation created by the armed conflict in israel and gaza." us airways quickly canceled its flight from philadelphia and united with two flights out of newark. delta says its own daily flight from new york to tel aviv was already in the air when the decision was made. the flight was diverted to paris with 290 p

european aviation agencies took similar action. the airport is open for busines. don, good morning. >> reporter: usually ben gurion is much busier than this. the security lines are empty. on any given day israel's only international airport has 1,000 passengers coming from or to the united states. despite the heavy toll that israeli defense forces have had against hamas fighters, hamas continues to fight. albeit with much fewer israeli casualties. passengers in tel aviv's airport scrambled for shelter when hamas launched three rockets in their direction. two rockets were intercepted by the iron dome defense system but one rocket destroyed this house less than a mile from the airport. no one was injured. the homeowner had left for work five minutes earlier. if the 2,000 or so rockets fired out of gaza were more accurate or not knocked down by israel's air defense system, this would be a much more common sight. this was the worst direct hit on an israeli home. its proximity to the airport sent a in gaza, the third war has taken the lives of 600 palestinians. most of

. >> reporter: the federal aviation administration and agencies around the world routinely issue noticesairmen, or note ems for sure warning of hotspots on the ground. recent warnings highlighted ukraine and syria. each carrier assesses risks differently. some war zones fall right along or near major air transportation routes. before mh17's crash, airlines like klm, had been flying over the ukraine avoiding the creme vinnicrimeanpeninsula but air cd others had avoided it. in a statement. air canada tells real money as a precautionary measure we have been avoiding the area for seven rag months already. we do not perceive any impact on our passengers. however, as all major airlines divert flights to avoid the ukraine entirely. aviation consultants and retired airline captain ross says there will be an impact to the bottom line. >> it will cost the airlines perhaps a little more money to take a longer route. a little longer flight plan, flight time. and eventually they'll pass that cost to their passengers in terms of ticket prices. >> reporter: july 18th radar images show almost no traffic

. >> the reports along with the international civil aviation organization of united nations agency. there is clearly a need, a full and transparent international investigation. >> aviation authorities around the world, including here in the u.s. are telling airlines not to fly over this area. lufthansa, delta and others are avoiding it. >>> we have team coverage tonight. mark matthews has reaction from the bay area's ukrainian community. we begin with steven stock. one of the concerns, this route has been deemed safe but recently it's been unsafe. >> that's exactly right, raj. we pieced together flight paths over europe dating back over this area over the last several weeks. though many airlines appear to have avoided ukraine altogether, several airlines, including malaysia air, continued to fly over the country regularly despite the conflict there on the ground. despite the fact that at least one cargo plane had already been shot out of the same sky in the same region, less than a week ago. >> the pictures show the aftermath of what u.s. officials now believe was a missile strike on

that looks at air crashes and civil aviation incidents around the world, they want them to be the lead agency will see how that pans out. chuck hagel had a conference today on the telephone with his dutch counterpart, and the f.b.i. confirming today that they have sent at least one member of staff from their lab at quantico. and the ntsb member will arrive in kiev today. there is no guarantee that either of these people or anybody else who might follow will be allowed near to the wreckage because that is controlled by the pro-russian separatists, tom. >> you bring up a good point. i want to tackle the latest report that russia is banning some americans from entering. >> reporter: yeah. this is odd. i mean it doesn't seem to be connected with whhas been happening in crimea and eastern ukraine but the timing is suspicious. the russians have band 12 millions from entering their -- banned 12 members from entering their country, 13 in total. the russians say one was added because on u.s. banned a member of the russian parliament. all of the other 12 are affiliated with guantinamo bay and quantico.

lufthansa canceled flights and the european aviation safety agency recommends flying to tel aviv calling it a hazardous situation. and the state department says there is still no plan to cancel the travel warning. one of the u.s. officials i spoke with says that is officials here at home are watching the situation closely at tel aviv and the ban could be returned if necessary. wolf? >> pamela brown with the latest on that. thanks very much. the israeli military says it is intercepted five hamas rockets launched from gaza aimed at tel aviv today. martin savidge is just outside of tel aviv. you say you saw some of these rocket interceptions. tell us what it was like. >> reporter: well, i mean, you know, it was only a couple of hours after the news was announced that the faa was lifting the ban for usair carriers. we had come to the airport to report the news when we heard sirens in the distance and then just moments later, you heard the very zing but rapid explosions and those are a signature of the iron dome. and so there were a series of those. it got quite for maybe ten minutes and then

plane's two black boxes arriving in the uk this morning, the dutch asking britain's air accident aviation agency on taking the lead on analyzing them, but experts say getting to the actual wreckage is vital because the boxes likely won't hold the key to who shot down the plane and why. >> the crime scene, which is what mh-17 is, has been i think picked clean by the various groups that were in control of that area. i think the entire site has been compromised. >> u.s. officials now ramping up the pressure on russia, briefing reporters on what they say is convincing intelligence that russian militants shot it down accidentally. they point to this graphic showing the trajectory of the flight. u.s. intelligence picking up a missile launcher being turned on and then the vertical ascent of the missile and its heat plume. the u.s. also releasing evidence a buildup of russian forces in rostov city, releasing this satellite imagery of a military area just inside the russian border where they continue to ship weapons, many head for ukraine. today former u.s. president bill clinton delivered the keynote sp

federal aviation administration and other agencies around the world has issued warnings and advisorieslots, but planes were still flying over the area. ukrainian officials knew of the risk of ground-to-air attacks. the state aviation administration of ukraine had issued warnings and on march 12th, shut down airports and closed lower air place over the crimea peninsula. on july 8th it announced the closure of air space in eastern ukraine. euro control said it appeared from the radar, mh-17 was flying at 33,000 feet, a mere 1,000 feet above the zone that had been closed. the european cockpit association says . . . the path is officially known as l980. flights going to major hubs like london, singapore, and hong kong all follow the same route. airlines are now beginning to voluntarily avoid these areas. >> and you have them making those risk determinations all the time. >> reporter: in a statement . . . delta, klm, air france, and other airlines are now following suit. >>> the pilots of the flight thought there was any danger, why didn't they change course? joining me is the ceo of arrowe

aviation. and that agency reviewed the tapes from the shoot-down of that airliner nine years earlier and then what they ended up doing was publishing the harrowing transcript of what happened inside the plane as it was rapidly descending after it had been shot by a soviet fighter jet fired missile. and that investigation, what they published, right, it corroborated much of what we already knew about flight 007. the plane's auto pilot had failed. as a result of that auto pilot failure, that's why the plane drifted into soviet territory. it also corroborated, of course, that russian missiles had brought that passenger plane down. as a result of the cockpit recorders being handed over to the international body, the world also learned that soviet fighter pilots had made no attempt to contact the airliner over the radio before they shot it down. and this is the detail that feels like a punch in the gut even all these years later. because of that data, the world also learned that the passengers on that flight may have been alive for a full 12 minutes before that plane crashed. 12 minutes after it was hi

and we should point out that this afternoon, the european aviation safety agency warned all airlinesukraine air space. and if you take a look at this map here from flight radar 24, you can see that almost all of the flights in and around ukraine, they're going south of ukraine, going down by turkey. and here's what you need to keep in mind when you talk about hotspots around the world and how many planes are out there. there's busy skyways, so to speak, the highways of the sky. 99,000 flights every day worldwide. those are commercial flights. we're not talking about cargo flights, we're not talking about private aviation. 58,288 flight routes around the world. most of them are pretty meaningless or harmless routes, but there are scores of these. and thousands of notice to airmen notes are going out every single day. these are notices saying do not fly in this particular region. most of the time it's because maybe the president's in the area or there's something else going on. but we should also point out that many airlines are flying in areas where you would not be expecting them to.
